Multiple CBCS students have been named recipients of various fellowships to support the completion of their doctoral degrees.
The Presidential Doctoral Fellowship was awarded to Justin Boyan Han, a student in the Applied Behavioral Analysis program; Monica Nelson, a student in the Aging Sciences program; and Elzbieta Wiedbusch and Nele Loecher, both students in the Behavioral and Community Sciences (BCS) PhD program. Awarded by the USF Office of Graduate Studies, this fellowship is given to doctoral students who are nominated by their department for their exceptional academic performance, experience, research, and contributions to the field.
Four students received the Graduate Student Success Fellowship, which supports first-generation doctoral students who have overcome adversity and financial hardships in the pursuit of their degree. It was awarded to criminology student Danielle Thomas, social work student Tara Matta, and BCS students Jocelyn Jarvis and Brooke Haney.
